Access Issues - new S23 FE

[Johanna16Bright]

I've just bought a new S23 FE but can't access it. The phone is asking for a password but none has been provided and the Samsumg default doesn't work. 

I'm not able to either restart or switch off the phone because both options require a password to be entered.

The phone is brand new from a high street retailer rather than reconditioned / second hand.

Please help!

Hi there

Default password is usually either 0000 or 1234.

If they don't work and you haven't set up a password yourself, then check the paperwork that would have been given to you / emailed to you by the new network in case they used a different password.

None of that work? Take it back.

It's not asking for Google login details, is it?
